[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 3039398, member: 28388"] When I was a new driver this (almost) exact thing happened to me. I was in a little 700 and trying to pull into an uphill driveway in a rural area. There were paver blocks marking a sort of half-assed flower bed at the edge of the driveway. My tire hit the pavers and dislodged a couple of them. I abandoned my attempt to go up the driveway, parked on the road, fixed the paver stones and re-distributed the mulch. The homeowner wasn't home, however I made it look like it was before I arrived and it was far from the house so no cameras. I called my on-car and told him what happened to cover my ass and he was fine with it. Bottom line: Always be honest and cover your ass. It's really hard to get permanently fired from hitting something, but it's really easy to get fired for trying to hide stuff/not reporting a screw-up. [/QUOTE]
